This semi-detached "drive-in home" features its own driveway with a carport and a pleasantly sunny, south-facing backyard. At the rear of the garden, there is a sizable wooden shed with a canopy, as well as two handy extra garden storage cupboards with a water point. This property is a classic example of "upside-down living." This means a large kitchen-diner/garden room on the ground floor, with the main 45 m² living space situated on the first floor. Finally, the bedrooms and bathroom are located on the second and third floors, along with a practical attic storage space. The house is ideal for alternative layouts; several examples of this can already be found in the street. For instance, expanding on the ground floor to create a large open-plan kitchen and living area. Within our network, we have architects and contractors we can connect you with to bring your dream home to life! Layout Ground Floor At the front of the house, the wooden facade panels stand out, featuring large windows across multiple floors. The rear facade, which also has large windows, is finished with wooden cladding as well. You enter via the spacious covered entrance, which houses the meter cupboard on the outside alongside a unique, retro 'milk delivery cupboard'. Next is the hallway with a toilet equipped with a small washbasin and radiator. Moving into the living space, you will find a garden-facing kitchen-diner with a U-shaped kitchen unit, a large wall unit with abundant practical storage space, and room for a washing machine and dryer. Hardwood sliding patio doors and an access door lead into the sunny, south-facing garden with a patio. First Floor Discover the harmony between comfort and design in this bright first-floor living room. Centered around an inviting fireplace, this room offers an ideal space to relax. The large rear window allows an abundance of natural light to flood in while offering peaceful views over the green garden, bringing the outdoors inside. A stylish wooden louvered wall subtly separates the staircase and adds a modern accent. Direct access to the stairs leads to the next floor. This living room not only provides a pleasant environment but also serves as the perfect central hub for the rest of your home. Second Floor On the second floor, alongside the landing (which can be closed off with a sliding door), you will find a spacious master bedroom at the rear and two bedrooms at the front, all three featuring spacious, vaulted sloping ceilings (vides). There is a neat, functional bathroom fitted with a bathtub/handheld shower unit, a vanity unit with two basins and a second toilet. Attic The storage attic is accessible via a hatch on the landing using a loft ladder (scissor ladder). The central heating boiler and mechanical ventilation unit are located here. It is possible to convert this area into an additional room by installing a fixed staircase and a front dormer window. A wide window unit is already present at the rear. Surroundings The entire terrace curves gently along a central green strip, making living here truly special and far from your average, cookie-cutter street layout! This attractive and conveniently located home has virtually all amenities within short walking and cycling distance, including a daycare center, (international) schools, shops, parks, and various sports facilities. The neighborhood is spacious and particularly popular among young families moving up from apartments. For instance, you can easily walk to the shops at the Lange Voort, and several schools are located nearby. Every Tuesday, a weekly market takes place on the square near the Lijtweg/Ommevoort. Oegstgeest is situated close to Leiden, known for its rich culture and wide array of amenities.
